Adeus Mariana
Sérgio Reis
Goodbye Mariana
I was born in the city, got married in the mountains
With my Mariana: A girl from afar
One day I felt her affection was strange
I said: Goodbye, Mariana, I'm leaving now
She's a true gaucho from head to toe
Only wears a big hat, baggy pants, and spurs
And I, seeing the situation getting complicated
Said: Goodbye, Mariana, I'm leaving now
As soon as day broke, she got me out of bed
Saddled my horse and rode out to the fields
And I got angry and left saying
Goodbye, Mariana, I'm leaving now
She didn't say anything, but kept thinking
If this time I was really leaving
She grabbed the whip and came towards me
I said: Let go, Mariana, I'm not leaving
And in her anger, she started breaking everything
Took my clothes and threw them out the door
I grabbed them, made a bundle, and left saying
Goodbye, Mariana, I'm leaving now
